you could do a cash advance from the card while at your bank and deposit the funds into your checking account. There will probably be some fee or fee’s associated with the cash advance but it’s doable!

Sorry to disapoint, ebay giftcards now require a paypal account but no bank account is needed

AniBanani November 30, 2010 at 9:16 pm

I work for b of a. Cash is fine. You just cant use credit card unless doing a cash advance is going to be okay but they will ask for ID and your parents have to be there. So cash is your best bet.

yes you can…sometimes the company will make you call it in to verify your identity. call instead.

I depends…who is claiming the interest on taxes? Who made the deposits? Believe it or not, a lot of people try to scam the IRS, Social Security and Medicaid by putting their children’s names on bank accounts. (should I be pointing at you). They are all aware of this, so these kinds of accounts are noted. Large withdrawals and deposits are often reported under the patriot act. If you are trying to get around the tax laws or make other shady dodges, eventually you will probably be caught. Paying principle, interest and penalties isn’t fun.*******By “child” I meant child of your mother. As our parents age, there are tactics to get more medicaid coverage without spending savings….or to avoid gift taxes…one of those tactics is to put a “child” (they can be a 50 year old child…it doesn’t matter) on the account as a co-signatory. The government has become aware of this stuff and looks for it. I know because my father (age 66) got caught doing that with his mother.If you are BOTH contributing to the account and the money could conceivably be yours…then you have nothing to worry about….IF however, the government can prove that deposits are solely your mother’s, they may come after you for that tax money.

It depends on your state. In CA, it’s not legal for gift cards to expire. The company can charge a minimal processing fee but it can never expire. Call the number on the back of the card. You may find it’s hasn’t really expired.

13.9 Relationship between PayPal’s protection programs and Chargebacks. Credit card Chargeback rights, if they apply, are broader than PayPal’s protection programs. Chargebacks may be filed more than 45 days after the payment, may cover unsatisfactory items even if they do not qualify as SNAD, and may cover intangible items.You may pursue a Dispute/Claim with PayPal, or you may contact your credit card company and pursue your Chargeback rights. You may not pursue both at the same time or seek a double recovery. If you have an open Dispute or Claim with PayPal, and also file a Chargeback with your credit card company, PayPal will close your Dispute or Claim, and you will have to rely solely on your Chargeback rights.If PayPal does not make a final decision on your Claim until after your credit card issuer’s deadline for filing a Chargeback, and because of our delay you recover less than the full amount you would have been entitled to recover from the credit card issuer, we will reimburse you for the remainder of your loss (minus any amount you have already recovered from the Seller).Before contacting your card issuer or filing a Dispute with PayPal, you should contact the Seller to resolve your issue in accordance with the Seller’s return policy as stated on their auction or website.13.10 No Double Recovery. You may not file a Dispute/Claim, or receive a recovery, for a purchase under PayPal’s protection for buyers if you have already received a recovery for that purchase directly from eBay or the Seller.

No you cannot. Only cash may be used to purchase a money order

John December 4, 2010 at 8:41 am

Take it to a bank. If you have a bank account, take it to your own bank, They will do a cash advance against it and give you the cash and keep the card. If you don’t have a bank, go to a Bank of America branch and cash them in there. All you have to do is sign a couple of papers and they hand you the $50.

Cliff December 4, 2010 at 9:04 pm

if it has a visa/master card logo it should be ok. Make sure you are entering the correct information. If it still does not work you can try to find a seller that has the ability to accept credit cards directly (usually a store not an individual) and let them charge it since it’s a gift card you have no worries of them screwing up your bank account or real credit card.

If the card is backed by a US credit card, it’s possible they will do the exchange rate. Your best bet would be to contact the specific bank you are buying the card from and ask them. If the card has a customer service line on the back of it, that might be another good source of info.

I just LOVE LOVE! December 6, 2010 at 9:30 am

You would have to call them.

it won’t accept gift cards or debit cards. you have to use a credit card or itunes card. http://usitunes.blogspot.com/

well you can get a visa gift card almost anywhere nowa daysthen you can use it as a credit cardthen once you get you should register the card elsethe mechant may decline the cardread the followingUsing Visa or American Express Gift Cards to Shop Onlinequestion.jpgOne of the most asked gift card questions, particularly on Yahoo Answers is whether you can use a Visa or any other bank issued gift card (American Express, Discover, or MasterCard) to shop online. The answer is yes.However, there are additional steps you have to take to prevent your card from being rejected by the merchant. The problem with using Visa (or any other bank issued) gift card online is that there is no verifiable name and address associated with the card. When buying things online, most merchants want your name and billing address to match the name and address you have on file with your card (credit, debit, or bank gift card) issuer.Therefore, before you use your Visa or other bank issued gift card, call the merchant/financial institution that issued the card or go to their website and add your name and address to the card. This will ensure that when you use the card online, the name and address you provide to the merchant for billing will match the name and address on file for the card. Once you have registered your card, you can use it online just like you would use a regular credit card.If your information (name and address) has changed since you registered your Visa gift card, call the card issuer or go online and update your information before you use the card online.

It is so nice that you want to do something for her! Like everyone has said, a note to the supervisor would mean so much, because it really shows what a good job she is doing, and it is always nice to be noticed! Also, the person above me is correct; it is a little bit of a gray area to actually give presents to only one person. When people bring us presents I find the ones that we appreciate the most are the ones that are homemade, like brownies, cookies, etc. good luck! and definitely write that letter to the supervisor

Jorge R December 8, 2010 at 9:00 am

I use to enjoy a box of chocolate or cookies that can be placed in a common space and employees could snack on as we go about working.

Greg K December 8, 2010 at 9:31 pm

No, the bank can’t do that. You can spend the card on anything you can purchase with a Visa card.

Pat December 9, 2010 at 8:54 am

American Express is a good bet. We buy them at work and use them for gifts. They are generally accepted pretty much anywhere. Very similar to a money order.
